We are finally a few weeks in and getting back into the swing of things in our school year. It’s nothing like high school, not even close to middle and definitely not at all anything like the grade school days. In college we have Summer when May is still here and Spring is almost over. It feels like forever once August finally rolls around and I am sure I’m not alone when I say I miss some things about college. Here are some of those things.

The area itself

You basically made the choice of where you go to school based on where its located. Location is top priority when it comes to distance close to home for the commuters and far away for those actually living on campus. Either way you are getting away from your original location for either a few hours or a few months.

Some of your professors

In any type of schooling you had your fair share of favorite professors. College is one of those places where you really have to get to know the person before you make any judgments, especially on who teaches you. If you get one that cancels class every once in awhile, then you are immediately in love!

Your living space for the year

Some living spaces on campus are not the greatest, let’s admit that. However, if you make it worthwhile, then you would definitely miss it for that long Winter break! Even if you are living off campus that living space is gorgeous regardless of what you do and don’t have (since you know, you wanted avoid that on campus scene).

Some of your classes

Depending on your major or the open electives you’re taking, you’re probably thinking on that Thanksgiving break how much you want to be in that class right now. I know for me some classes depended on how interested I was in them (mostly my major of course) but the open electives I loved and always wanted to come back to or take again if I could.

More importantly, the friends you made

OF COURSE!! HOW CAN I FORGET THE MOST IMPORTANT THING! YOUR FRIENDS! The ones you met on day one of either move in or orientation. Those great bonds you left for either the week off, that long winter break or you leaving the college for a semester then coming back, those friends will be with you no matter what!
